[QUOTE="Sir Hawkeye, post: 407042, member: 295"] Some thoughts: 1. The more you look at something the more it looks like true neutral.:) Nothing is absolutely lawful, chaotic, good, or evil. Alignment is an average of many traits. 2. Societies don't have alignments per se. There are probably at least four (possibly five) seperate alignments involved in a society: The concepts of government The government itself (and the members of government) The population as a whole The average alignment of an individual. For example, America (IMHO): Chaotic Good concepts of government (originally, at least) Lawful Neutral government (Good tendencies) Population as a Whole Neutral (Chaotic tendencies?) Avg Citizen True Neutral (Good Tendencies?) The last two don't trust me on. see point #1. The Dwarven example: Chaotic concepts of government Lawful Good Governments, Societies, Individuals (Not enough detail to really judge) [/QUOTE]
